"Static"

I sunk my eyes in static,
You taught me how to see it.
Now there's no sign of her at hand.

So, I'm through looking at it.
My head is splitting trying,
To read the name that you abandoned.

Congratulations sister.
You put yourself right over!
Though you don't think I understand.

This sudden awkward rupture.
This stuck-unhealing fissure.
No love could possibly withstand.

And I'd never say,
It doesn't mean that much to me.
Glad anyway,
To see you struggle free.

Pinned down but unexamined.
Hope you kept right on looking,
At static, there, behind my eyes.

Keep pushing one-way vision.
I guess at least it's something,
Since everything is so compromised.

And I'd never say,
It doesn't mean that much to me.
Glad anyway,
To see you struggle free.

Pinned down... left unexamined.
Hope you keep right on looking...
